I suspect its more of an Xref issue with conflicting settings. I looked
around and found this:
If the drawing has an xref in it and someone else has the xref opened it
will not save unless both parties have
"XLOADCTL" = "0"
Or go to "OPTION", "OPEN AND SAVE"
"DEMAND LOAD XREFS"
and make sure it is set to "DISABLED"
